Three in-game bonuses which were previously available only to people who pre-ordered Red Dead Redemption from particular retailers will be made available for anyone to purchase on Xbox Live and PSN shortly.
Each item will cost 80 Microsoft Points on Xbox Live or AUD $1.32 (approximately NZD $1.80) on PlayStation Network. Look for them to start appearing for download from today, Tuesday, 12th April. "They should be fully available across all territories on both platforms within 24-48 hours thereafter based on the networks' respective update cycles," Rockstar stated.
The company has apologised to players for the delay in making the items available as DLC, claiming "there were some unanticipated technical delays," and reassured players that pre-order bonuses from the upcoming L.A. Noire "should become available as DLC much, much sooner."

The Liars and Cheats Pack, due for release on September 21, focuses on expanding the Free Roam multiplayer experience as well as adding new modes to Competitive Multiplayer.

Red Dead Redemption is a Western epic, set at the turn of the 20th century when the lawless and chaotic badlands began to give way to the expanding reach of government and the spread of the Industrial Age. A follow up to the 2004 hit Red Dead Revolver, this game tells the story of former outlaw John Marston, taking players on a great adventure across the American frontier.
Red Dead Redemption features an open-world environment for players to explore, including frontier towns, rolling prairies teaming with wildlife, and perilous mountain passes - each packed with an endless flow of varied distractions. Along the way, players will experience the heat of gunfights and battles, meet a host of unique characters, struggle against the harshness of one of the world’s last remaining wildernesses, and ultimately pick their own precarious path through an epic story about the death of the Wild West and the gunslingers that inhabited it.
